﻿SMOKE-FREE CAMPUS

Effective September 1, 2017, CSU Bakersfield has become a "Smoke-Free" and "Tobacco-Free" campus. According to Executive Order 1108, “smoke free” means the use of cigarettes, pipes, cigars, and other “smoke” emanating products, including e-cigarettes, vapor devices, and other like products are prohibited. The order also prohibits the use of smokeless tobacco, snuffs, and other tobacco products. For more information, please click on the following links:

CSUB promotes compliance by implementing educational campaigns, outreach, communications, and the promotion of tobacco cessation treatment programs that will assist people in quitting smoking completely or help them adhere to the smoke-free and tobacco-free policy. To get started right away on your Tobacco Cessation Program, you can access the following information:
